his episodes special guest is ABCA Hall of Fame Baseball Coach Dennis Rogers. Dennis is best known for having led the Riverside City College baseball program from 1990-2009 and 2011-15. In 25 seasons, he guided Riverside City to a record of 765-383, good for a winning percentage of .666.

Rogers began his coaching career in 1976 as an assistant at John W. North (Calif.) High School. A year later he became the head coach at San Gorgonio (Calif.) High School, where he piloted the team to a California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) 4A championship. Rogers later moved to San Bernardino Valley College as an assistant, where he helped the club to consecutive regional championships in 1978 and 1979.

From 1980-83, Rogers again found himself under the tutelage of his former college coach Scolinos, an ABCA Hall of Famer himself, at Cal Poly Pomona. As an assistant, Rogers’ recruiting efforts brought together a team that would produce NCAA Div. II national championships in 1980 and 1983. Rogers was a member of the coaching staff at Cal State Fullerton in 1988 and 1989, helping coach the Titans to the semifinals of the NCAA Div. I College World Series in ’88. Rogers had multiple stints in professional coaching over his career.

​From 1982-84, Rogers managed professionally for the Medford A's, Oakland’s Rookie Class-A affiliate, after the collegiate season at Cal Poly Pomona. He led Medford to a 149-63 record (.703) and captured the 1982 Northwest League Championship. During the 1986 and 1987 seasons, Rogers coached the Pittsburgh Pirates’ Class-AA Nashua (N.H.) Eastern League club as well as the Pirates’ Class-A Macon (Ga.) team. In 2003 and 2004, he coached the Oakland A’s Rookie Class A team, the Vancouver Canadians, leading them to the Northwest League Western Division title in 2004.
